$400,000 price tag, its $300 per-click fee, its $50,000 annual mainte-
nance contract and the accompanying requirement that patients pay
out of pocket for the bladeless procedure. Needless to say, there was
a lot for facilities to think about. "They looked at it and said, 'Gosh
how do I make this work?'" says Mr. Gaslin. "There's a limited appetite
for how much you want to spend on this stuff. Yet you want have the
new tools and toys and be able to offer the most up-to-date technolo-
gy to your patients."
The quandary offered a perfect opportunity for mobile cataract serv-
ices companies. They'd supply the femto lasers. All the facilities had
to do was schedule all their laser cataract patients on a given day (or
days) each month.
